Problem 9-56 Vector Gravitational Field - C

A spaceprobe is at the position shown in the figure. Use components to determine the gravitational acceleration (magnitude and direction) of the probe due to the effects of the earth and moon. The masses of the earth and moon are 6.0×1024kg and 7.4×1022kg, respectively.

No. While no orthogonal coordinate system is incorrect this is not the most convenient for the problem.
